Posted by It seems these days that the most talked and written about topic is “how to exit the Matrix” (which our Essence may or may not been trapped in – we simply don’t know for sure, it’s all conjecture and stories). The only thing for sure we need to focus on is ending our life as well as we can and ‘exiting’ the dead bodies appropriately.
Setting aside whether we really are ‘trapped’ (or whether we entered these contained bodies willingly), most of the writings about ‘exiting the matrix’ (whatever that is) proclaim that the route to exit is long, painful, traumatic, complex, involving multiple ‘stages’, and takes years of work under the tutelage of a ‘master’ far more versed in spiritual ways than we are.
Moreover, the assistance from these self-professed ‘spiritual’ gurus, ‘masters’, egocentric podcasters, and other general pontificators about ‘spirituality’ require us to pay significant sums of money over long periods of time for the ‘training’, or ‘schooling’, and following complex formulas which in no way include a ‘guarantee’ of exit. And exit from what? We don’t even know for sure what we are exiting from – except the physical body!
“Spirituality” has been corrupted. We shouldn’t be paying for this information. Do these ‘experts’ have any real knowledge or answers? It is always theories, conjecture and guesswork.
As Swedenborg said 300 years ago, only God knows what happens to individuals on death, not even the angels know that. Nothing has changed in the last three centuries since Swedenborg’s views were documented. We came in alone and we leave alone.
Five hundred years ago, Boehme had already worked out the process on death. He said:
The soul needs no going forth anywhere.
One hundred years ago, PD Ouspensky said the same thing:
There is no need to look anywhere. We are already there.
And in 1943, TS Eliot said (in the poem Little Gidding from Four Quartets):
We shall not cease from exploration/And the end of all our exploring/Will be to arrive where we started/And know the place for the first time.
The only person who can help us in the process of death is our own self. This is because where we head for on death should be back to ourselves. We leave the computer game, the experiment, the hologram we were contained and programmed in. We take the head set off. It is the time to leave behind the programming we have been trapped in. Strip it all away.
The 1998 film Run Lola Run put it well at the start of the film, when the film announced that we are actually playing in a game, which starts and ends. The opening scenes state:
Man….probably the most mysterious species on our planet. A mystery of unanswered questions…who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? How do we know what we think we know? Why do we believe anything at all? Countless questions in search of an answer. An answer that will give rise to a new question…..and the next answer will give rise to the next question and so on….and so on.
But, in the end, isn’t it always the same question? And always the same answer?: “The ball is round. The game lasts ninety minutes. That’s a fact. Everything else is pure theory.” [and the official in a uniform then kicks a ball into the air].
At the beginning of the game, when we arrive in our current bodies, the soul is meant to merge with the body for optimum development during a lifetime. Often it doesn’t however, as the mind (brain) has no firewall, and so the controllers/rulers on earth can program the mind/body which affects the data input to the soul and impedes its learning, development and data output.
But from a divine/cosmic law perspective, our Essence cannot be messed with, even if the body can.
So on death, when we separate from the body (having taken the head set off), we can direct our mind (consciousness) to our Higher Self (“going back to me”). It is reasonable to deduct that this should bypass any interference. What we think is what we get. Perhaps there is no ‘trap’ for us anyway; the trap is most likely our own minds that haven’t been purged of their clutter from ‘life’. Who can say?
So: why all the complex contortions about preparation before death? No one knows for sure what processes occur, so keeping the body exit plan simple is essential (as we should be doing in this life too). Complex plans (in life or death) have a tendency to fail.
Rational analysis from vast sources of information across the centuries state that all we need to do is strip off the ‘shell’ around our Essence and move back home, unfettered, from where we originated.
The ‘shell’ is the ‘head set’ (the earth belief-systems such as religion, conditioning, programming, physical desires relating to the body and ego, addictions, distractions and cul-de-sacs, emotions and memories, and so on).
We need a mind that will survive death. Stripping away the shell we acquired from the earth realm is a worthwhile exercise as we won’t need that where we are going. A ‘re-cap’ (life review before we die) significantly aids our departure at death. Holding on to anything on death creates weight and reduces escape velocity.
Perhaps we should simply work on finding out about ourselves properly before we die. Who are we? Only we can do this. This might be our most worthwhile exercise before death.
In whatever form death finally appears for us, suddenly or after much warning, the cosmic laws are clear that our minds will direct us and nothing can override that.
